i seeked out care because i knew what was going on with me was not normal. when i was there, i saw one women in the holding area, and one man having a break with secuirty around him. when i was admitted to the psych ward on the floor without maximum security, id say that biologically born males out numbered biologically born females
Howevever, i have been the hospital for other things, and everytime i have gone to the ER, it’s been someone who identifies as a female 99% of the time who i see is waiting to goto the psych hold. so its interesting to see that reflected in the statistics.
It’s a bit more taboo for men to seek that care, for one.

This is for being admitted to the hospital though, not counselling. Inpatient psychiatric care is pretty serious stuff.
and those psychological crises in men might be logged differently, as suicides, homicides, or assaults for example
